Kripps pharmacy

In the fall of 1947 Stephen Kripps, newly married, just graduated from the University of Saskatchewan Pharmacy program, and recently arrived in Vancouver, purchased the Owl Drug Store pharmacy at 994 Granville Street ,a location that 60 years laterhas become a defacto heritage site. At the time, there were many neighborhood drugstores but only Kripps Pharmacy survived the transition to the 21st century giant office towers and complex residential infill projects that have been completed throughout the downtown core.Vancouver has grown up during the period of Kripps Pharmacys 60 years residence downtown. The city is now famous, internationalized, and the downtown rents reflect high margin, high priced franchise retailers and financial services. To serve its long standing clients with sensible pricing Kripps moved to its new location, 5413 West Boulevard, an amiable, relaxed neighborhood, where it continues to promote and popularize natural, holistic health nutritional supplements.Kripps Pharmacy has remained a family business under Dr. Edward Thorpe. Because of his scientific training at the Ph.D. level (UBC doctorate, Medicinal Organic Chemistry, plus M.Sc., B.Sc.Pharm, B.Sc.)
